"I refuse to submit!"

A vicious glint flashed in the eyes of a four-meter-tall powerhouse from the Giant Demon Race. An incredibly terrifying Power of Void Demon erupted from it, swirling around its body like a suit of black armor. Wielding a three-meter-long Wolf Fang Club, it suddenly lunged, bringing the club down in a frenzied smash toward the Ghost Hunter.

The Giant Demon powerhouse’s attack was as fast as lightning. Within a ten-meter radius, almost no Grandmaster among the Human Race’s Spiritual Spear Masters could have dodged the blow.

"You refuse to submit? Then die!"

The Ghost Hunter gave a chilling smile as mysterious Demon Patterns surfaced on his legs. With a slight sway of his body, a Residual Shadow was left in his place.

The Giant Demon powerhouse’s club came crashing down, smashing brutally into the ground. The earth cracked as if hit by heavy artillery, and countless fragments of rock shot out in all directions like shrapnel.

But the Ghost Hunter had appeared behind the Giant Demon powerhouse like a phantom. He thrust a claw forward, plunging it into the Giant Demon’s body as if it were tofu. With a casual dig, he ripped its heart right out.

"Here, have it back!"

The Ghost Hunter casually crushed the heart in his hand, splattering countless pieces all over the Giant Demon powerhouse’s face.

A look of disbelief flashed in the Giant Demon powerhouse’s eyes. Its body swayed for a moment before collapsing heavily to the ground.

"Who else refuses to submit?"

Having killed the Giant Demon powerhouse in a single move, the Ghost Hunter surveyed his surroundings, his voice cold and his eyes flashing with a vicious light.

The surrounding Void Demon powerhouses all fell silent, their eyes filled with dread as they looked at the Ghost Hunter.

That powerhouse from the Giant Demon Clan was also a Viscount Level Void Demon, with strength comparable to a top-level Grandmaster of the Human Race. Yet, it had been killed so easily by the Ghost Hunter. Clearly, the Ghost Hunter’s power was terrifying.

"I refuse to submit!"

A voice rang out from a mountaintop in the valley.

The Void Demons all looked up and immediately saw Shu Feng standing on the summit, a Spiritual Spear in hand.

BANG!! 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

A Spear of Light shot in from outside, striking a Ghost-devouring Demon in the head and blowing its skull apart.

Three hundred Dragon Hunting Dogs with Spirit Sect Level combat strength swarmed into the valley like phantoms.

"Dammit! They’re attacking!"

"Break out! We have to break out!"

"Kill that little human bastard!"

...

Within the valley, the dozens of Void Demon powerhouses scattered. Some tried to break through the encirclement, some went into hiding, and the other eight Void Demon Viscounts charged straight for Shu Feng.

’It’s a failure!’

The Ghost Hunter gave Shu Feng a deep look and sighed softly. A decisive glint flashed in his eyes. With a flicker of his body, he began to flee frantically into the distance.

If he could gather the power of the dozens of top-level Void Demon Hunters present, the Ghost Hunter was confident he could fight Shu Feng.

But since Shu Feng had found this place and launched a surprise attack, it meant the Ghost Hunter’s chances of victory were slim. He was unwilling to fight Shu Feng in such an unfavorable environment.

’He escaped? That Void Demon really is a handful.’

Shu Feng glanced in the direction the Ghost Hunter had fled, a hint of surprise in his eyes. He had deliberately revealed himself, hoping the Ghost Hunter would take the bait and try to kill him, only to be killed in return.

"As for the rest of you, how foolish to dare enter my prepared battlefield!"

Shu Feng glanced at the eight approaching Void Demon Viscounts with a mocking look in his eyes. With a wave of his hand, ripples shimmered in the air, and a hundred Dragon Hunting Dogs materialized, pouncing directly at the eight Void Demon Viscounts.

"Get away!"

A vicious glint shone in the eyes of a Void Demon Viscount from the Devouring Ghost Demon Clan. With a fierce roar, it lashed out with its claw, sending a black claw-light crashing into a Dragon Hunting Dog and blowing its head apart.

Five Dragon Hunting Dogs shot toward the Void Demon Viscount from five different directions like bolts of lightning. It moved like a phantom, fighting fiercely against the five Dragon Hunting Dogs. It frantically channeled its Power of Void Demon, crushing the hearts of one Dragon Hunting Dog after another.

The instant that Void Demon Viscount crushed the heart of the fourth Dragon Hunting Dog, Luna—wearing the Legendary Equipment [Rabbitman’s Hope]—appeared in a flash. She stabbed her sword into the Viscount’s back, piercing its heart. With a vicious twist, she completely shredded it.

"Blood Flame Blade!"

A Viscount of the Blood Demon Clan, while besieged by Dragon Hunting Dogs, unleashed a Blood Flame Blade that flew madly toward Shu Feng, three hundred meters away.

"Such a paltry light dares to shine?"

A look of disdain flashed in the beautiful eyes of Su Mi, who stood quietly beside Shu Feng. With an air of someone far older than her years, she flicked her finger. A streak of blood shot out and shattered the Blood Flame Blade.

’This little one... should I do something about her? Maybe get her to read fewer wuxia novels?’

Shu Feng’s face twitched. He glanced at Su Mi and thought to himself, ’Forget it. Everyone should have their hobbies. Reading wuxia novels is a fine interest to have. It’s definitely not because I can’t beat her.’

Shu Feng, Shui Lingyan, Wu Yuexia, and Camilla had to train arduously every day just to improve their cultivation. Su Mi, on the other hand, had absorbed the power of an Upper Blood Demon Duke. Her strength increased continuously every day without any need for arduous training, which was why she had time to read wuxia novels.

Distracted for a moment, the Blood Demon Viscount’s right leg was immediately chomped down on by a Dragon Hunting Dog, which bit it clean off.

The Steel Beast, channeling Spiritual Ghost Thunder into its blade, slashed out wildly. Its strike cut the Blood Demon Viscount in two, killing it instantly.

Camilla opened her Moon’s Eye and drew her bow. A ray of black moonlight shot out, an arrow that pierced the shoulder of a Wolfman Demon Marquis.

The Wolfman Demon Marquis had just torn three Dragon Hunting Dogs to shreds when Camilla’s arrow severely wounded it. The eight Dragon Hunting Dogs surrounding it seized the opportunity to pounce, tearing the Wolfman Demon Marquis to pieces in a mad frenzy.

A shadow trembled slightly, then flickered continuously as it rapidly departed the area.

’Zhu Yeying escaped? What a pity. I even gave her the perfect opportunity to kill me.’

Shu Feng glanced in the direction Zhu Yeying had fled, a look of regret in his eyes.

Both Zhu Yeying and the Ghost Hunter were great powerhouses who possessed Divine-level Bloodlines; they were among the very strongest in the Void Demon Hunting Ground. Even if Su Mi were to use her Two-stage Transformation, she might not be able to hunt them down and kill them.

This was especially true for Zhu Yeying. Once she was in a place without Dragon Hunting Dogs, she could travel freely through shadows. In the darkness, she was like a fish in water.

Su Mi’s power far surpassed Zhu Yeying’s, but it was still impossible for her to hunt down and kill her. After all, she lacked any tracking abilities.

Under the combined assault of Luna, the Steel Beast, Camilla, Shu Feng, and the Dragon Hunting Dogs, the few remaining Void Demon Viscounts were eliminated one by one.
